Notes
For best results, ensure your cream cheese is very soft to avoid lumps.
Don't skip the chilling step; it helps keep the cookies thick and prevents the filling from leaking.
Feel free to mix in nuts or different chocolate varieties for a personal touch!
Store cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze them for up to 3 months.
